It seems to be the fashion at the moment

For bloggers, here, there, and everywhere, to be doing a bit of spring cleaning. I've been planning to for ages, but not because I was bothered about the design, but because I'd had it enough of Movable Type. I never got my head round the template structure, and the textgif navigation on the admin UI made my hands hurt. It's probably better in version 3, but having used it on a couple of other sites, I've fallen for WordPress in a big way. Switching from MT took me about half an hour, including setting up redirects so there shouldn't be any dead links.

Haven't done any tinkering with the style yet, but I have now got things set up so that I can

blog a picture straight from my phone

- post an entry via email

- start hooking into technorati and stuff in a big way

So basically I'm ready to start playing with all the tools that everyone was really excited about a year ago.

Now, off to find a decent, whitelabelish theme.
